650 megs of black screen?

[ffreezinmn]

Hi all-

Any ideas on what the purpose of 650+ megs of black screen is for in this Video_TS Vob?

Thanks

If it is just blank screen you can removie it with Vobblaner or DVDRemaker pro

you downloaded crap




... pls keep the forum rules in mind

No, UncasMS, it is often seen on DVDs - just filler.

From PgcEdit, position the cursor on any PGC in VMGM and Ctrl-Del. Select "remove whole VOB". Save (Ctrl-S)

Presto! You have saved 650Mb and increased your quality by more than 10%

i had seen this with one of the lion king discs, maybe to stop us backing it up-- vobblanker fixed it

@ Blutach thanks I thought it was filler however this was the first time I ran into so much in one vob at one time. Man, it makes you wonder! I would love to get good at Pgcedit it just seems so damn intimidating. I read 2cools guides @ Doom9 and my eyes start to blur. I'll get their but maybe not this week.

@ photo_angel I have been looking at dvd remake. It seems like a wonderful program. Are their any negitives in store for me if I buy it?

Lifes short, stay awake for it!

Re DVDRMP - Certainly no negatives - it is a great editing program.

Madagascar is also a DVD with a pure black VIDEO_TS.VOB file.

I like them! Easy to get rid of and boosts quality in 5 seconds flat.

Plus, it gets you into the MenuShrink record books.

PgcEdit is a very powerful editing tool. I was kinda intimidated in the beginning too. If you want to blank out all the extras on a DVD with PgcEdit , load the rip use File Open DVD, then go to DVD, blank all Title PGCs in DVD and hit OK to all but the Movie you want to keep. The movies is usually the biggest and longest running one. To keep the movie just hit Cancel
to keep it. There are many powerful editing tools out there, VobBlanker, PgcEdit, DVDRemake Pro. Pick one and use it. The one you use the most will become easiest for you because your used to it.

Yo JM!
I will be in the books the next time Jeanl updates and not for this title. I sent him an e-Mail the other day saving 1100 megs. Not in the top ten but I was FLIPPING amazed never the less. I have to agree with ya I use VobBlanker as my main blanking tool. However I can't do a thing with multi angle movies using it. I started looking at DVD remake for that reason. I downloaded a trial version and was able to make thoses chains and Vobs hop and skip. I haven't bought it yet simply because I believe that it will make me lazy and not take the time to learn programs like PGCedit. Bye the bye thanks for the encouragement with PGCedit!!!!!! I think understanding how programs such as Pgcedit works will greatly improve my understanding of the structure and inner workings of a DVD.

Oh is there a huge difference between DVD remake and DVD remake Pro.

You got to believe!
Second star to the right and straight on until morning!
I want the blue pill!

@ffreezinmn - With the DVD's I have backed there was only one time I broke the gwiz barrier on a title that jmet
was already in the record books for. As I say who need singing and dancing dwarves in the menus!!!!
